How can I get a serious woman to like me?

[Anonymous]

There's a girl I really like, but I'm not sure she likes me... she always called me "Mister", and we accidentally bumped into each other and she sprained her ankle so this wasn't a great start...

Lately though she accepted me helping her out loading stuff in her car, and accepted some cookies I made... she also started smiling at me and calling me by my first name...

I asked her if we could meet up sometimes, she said "Maybe we'll see..."

Does she likes me or she's just being civil? She did give me her number and sometimes she approached me on her own...

It sounds like you've made some progress with this girl already, dude! Just taking the time to bake for her and help out shows you're genuine. And getting her number is a good sign.

With more serious women, they just take a bit longer to come around sometimes. She's probably just making sure you're actually a nice guy before fully letting her guard down. That "maybe we'll see" wasn't a no, so keep your hopes up!

My advice would be to continue being friendly but let her take the lead for now. Keep chatting when you see her, let her know small things about yourself so she can see your interests align. An idea could be asking if she wants company studying at the library. Something low key where you can talk.

Slowly she may warm up more. And definitely respect her space - don't keep asking for concrete plans yet. In time if she enjoys your company, she'll suggest hanging properly herself.

Stay patient and let your good qualities shine through naturally. Soon she'll realize what a great catch you are! With some caring attention, I bet this serious girl could surprise you with how much she comes to like you too.

Ask her out before someone else does and she's gone.

Maybe she's being friendly. Only way to know is to ask her out. If she's not interested move on.
